After reading about the blazing fast boot time of Ubuntu 9.04 on Matt Cutts’ blog, I decided it was worthwhile to go for the upgrade on my MSI Wind U100-432US. Before the upgrade I made sure to install bootchart and manually measure the boot time as well. More here

After updating to Jaunty, bootchart showed a boot time of 23 seconds and a real time measurement of 34 seconds. That’s a real time improvement of 32 percent!
